The affine equivariant estimate matrix is constructed using the sign covariance matrix (SCM) where the sign concept is based on Oja's criterion function. The influence function and asymptotic theory are developed to consider robustness and limiting efficiencies of the SCM regression estimate. The estimate is shown to be consistent with a limiting multinormal distribution. The influence function, as a function of the length of the contamination vector, is shown to be linear in elliptic cases; for the least squares (LS) estimate it is quadratic. The asymptotic relative efficiencies with respect to the LS estimate are given in the multivariate normal as well as the t-distribution cases. The SCM regression estimate is highly efficient in the multivariate normal case and, for heavy-tailed distributions, it performs better than the LS estimate. Simulations are used to consider finite sample efficiencies with similar results. The theory is illustrated with an example.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/1467-9868.00344","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,3,12]],"date-time":"2003-03-12T19:37:22Z","timestamp":1047497842000},"page":"447-466","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Estimates of Regression Coefficients Based on the Sign Covariance Matrix"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"64","author":[{"given":"Esa","family":"Ollila","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4 , Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hannu","family":"Oja","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4 , Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Thomas P.","family":"Hettmansperger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pennsylvania State University , University Park , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2002,8,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023040109112583900_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1460","DOI":"10.1214\/aos\/1176325637","article-title":"Estimators related to U-processes with applications to multivariate medians: asymptotic normality","volume":"22","author":"Arcones","year":"1994","journal-title":"Ann.
